Oscar Halvorson, age 21, a shingle weaver, Tuesday afternoon ended his
life in his home at 2710 South 14th Street by sending two bullets from a small revolver through his heart.
Relatives attribute the act to sudden insanity, declaring the young man had not been normal for the last
few days. He was the son of G.A. Halvorson, a fruit grower of Kennewick, and had been in Tacoma only a short time.
Oscar was to have met his sisters, Miss Laura Halvorson and Mrs. Tomine Davis at the postoffice yesterday
afternoon at 4 o'clock. When he did not arrive they returned to their home and found his body lying on a
bed in his room. A revolver lay beside the body. The police were notified and Detective John Strickland,
with County Coronor L.B. Ashton, investigated. The coronor found that Halvorson had shot himself through
the heart twice, the bullets entering the body less than half an inch apart. Halvorson's sisters have
been in Tacoma several weeks and were joined by him several days ago. He left Kennewick to find employment
here, but was unsuccessful. Coronor Ashton was told that the youth had been despondent for three or four
days and was not himself. Miss Halvorson and Mrs. Davis were hysterial over the sucide and were taken to the
home of Rev. O.J. Ordal, 912 South 17th Street. The body of Halvorson was removed to the C.O. Lynn company's.
